Alkaline Foods List
Detailed and Comprehensive Acid Alkaline Foods Chart pH Ratings
5 Steps to Boost Your Health & Body with Our Alkaline Foods Chart
1) When you are preparing the foods for a meal, look at a particular category of the foods and select more foods in the alkaline category.
2) This alkaline food chart is only accurate for certain state of the foods. For example, cooked lettuce has a different pH value compared to a boiled lettuce.
3) The food chart is based on a number of acid alkaline food chart, nutritionists, and doctors. If you find a conflict with other alkaline food charts, sign up for our newsletters you’ll discover the alkaline principles behind these differences.
4) This alkaline food chart is based on the “residue” or “ash” of the foods after it has been digested in the stomach. That is why you will find lemon is categorized under alkaline and not acidic.
5) Bookmark this page and come back to this page whenever you need. Share this page with your friends in Facebook or where you go if you think your friends would love this chart too.

I take 6-7 drugs daily.I usually juice veggies and fruits from your more alkaline list when taking them mostly in am.But do take several of these meds in pm.Would taking them with soy,almond or coconut milk be benificial rather than just water?Or should I be taking with whole foods?
Your site is wonderful.Thanks for all the useful info
